Encaustic Art is an activity of creative art making involving the use of low heat tools and molten wax colours. It's so simple that virtually everyone can achieve artistic expression. This can range from simple abstract 'chaotic pattern' greetings card through to the finest forms of gallery artwork. Beginners often find this an easier medium to aproach than established painters because they have no pre-conception of what will happen.  Using the iron as an application tool rather than a brush offers totally different possibilities and potentials helping new skills develop.
